About Camellia
A small company, built to do this properly.
To be the HVAC company people in Slidell recommend without hesitating — because the work was done right and nobody felt sold to.
Camellia is owner-operated. When you call, you reach the person who will be working on your system, and who is accountable for it afterward. There is no dispatcher between you and the technician, and no commission structure pushing a replacement you don't need.
Measured, not estimated. Every diagnosis starts with real readings taken off your equipment.
Pressures, temperatures, amp draw, capacitor values, and airflow get compared against what the manufacturer says they should be. That's the difference between knowing what's wrong and guessing at it — and it's why you get a written record at the end of every visit, whether or not anything needed fixing.
Clear pricing, honest recommendations, and work you can verify.
You'll know what a repair costs before it starts. If a repair makes more sense than a replacement, we'll tell you so — even when the replacement would pay us better. And if we can't fix something or it's outside what we do, we'll say that too.

Questions
Straight answers, before you book.
What are your hours?
Monday through Friday, 7am to 5pm. Call or text 985-788-8539 — texting is often the fastest way to reach us when we're on a job.
Do you work weekends or after hours?
Regular service is Monday through Friday. Camellia Comfort Plan members can reach us for emergency no-cool and no-heat call-outs on Saturdays and Sundays. If you're not a member and your system is down, still call — we'll tell you honestly what we can do.
What does a service call cost?
We'll tell you the diagnostic fee when you book, and you'll know the cost of any repair before work starts. No surprise fees added afterward, and nothing is done without your approval.
Should I repair or replace my system?
It depends on the equipment's age, the specific failure, the refrigerant it uses, and how the rest of the system is holding up. We give you both numbers and our honest read. If the repair makes sense, that's what we recommend — we don't push replacements.
Do you offer financing?
Yes, financing is available for new system installations. Ask and we'll walk you through the options before you commit to anything.
How often should my system be serviced?
Twice a year in this climate — once before cooling season and once before heating season. Gulf Coast systems run more hours per year than almost anywhere in the country, so small drifts in charge, capacitors, and drains add up faster.
